Abstract:
What is composing and how is it valued? What does a good education in composing look like; what constraints hinder it and is it possible to overcome such constraints? Can composing be a personal, creative and valuable activity for the school student? What role does the teacher play in all of this? These are questions that I discuss in this reflective study of composing in the classroom.

Abstract:
The purpose of this article is to contribute to existing literature about how activity theory might be used in music education research. It draws from the author's doctoral action research into the assessment of group composing for New Zealand's secondary school qualification, the National Certificate of Educational Achievement (NCEA). It outlines and explains how activity theory was used to examine three interacting activities: social jamming, group composing and achievement in the NCEA. Analysis revealed a relationship between students’ identities, their achievement in NCEA group composing, and socio-economic disparity.

Abstract:
Composing is an obligatory activity at Key Stage 3 in the present National Curriculum in music for England and for Wales. The research programme, based on field visits, seminars and questionnaires, seeks to identify a basis for effective classroom practice through direct observation of experienced teachers and their pupils in twenty-six State secondary schools across England. Visits have also been made to Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. Group-work is the dominant working method in most secondary schools. Much time is at present wasted in group-work and it contributes significantly to stress in both teachers and pupils. Composing is largely an individual activity and this is insufficiently acknowledged or planned for at Key Stage 3. Too many teachers use methods inappropriate to the resources available to them. There are problems of progression and preservation of pupils' work. Despite these problems there is strong evidence that many children enjoy composing activities in school and compose music in and out of school for a variety of reasons and occasions. Composing is firmly established in our music education curriculum and provides a unique feature of practice in the United Kingdom. When composing is taught well, pupils look forward to their music lessons in the secondary school and approve of and enjoy composing activities.

Abstract:
A series of novel Bi2MoO6/zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) photocatalysts have been successfully fabricated through a facile self-assembly process. X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), UV-vis spectrophotometry, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) characterized pure Bi2MoO6, pure ZIF-8, and a series of Bi2MoO6/ZIF-8 composites. The result indicated that, when compared with pure Bi2MoO6, the composite of Bi2MoO6/ZIF-8 exhibited excellent photocatalytic performance for the degradation of methylene blue (MB) under visible light. Moreover, the Bi2MoO6/ZIF-8-3 composite (the molar ratio of Bi2MoO6 to 2-MI is 3:3) has optimum photocatalytic performance because of the suitable amount of ZIF-8 decorated on the flower-like Bi2MoO6. The enhanced photocatalytic activity is probably due to the introduction of ZIF-8, which will promote the separation of electron–hole pair and the surface morphology. Benefitting from the diversity of the MOF species (ZIF-8 is one of them), this composing strategy of Bi2MoO6/MOF composite would provide new insight into the design of highly efficient visible light photocatalysts.

Abstract:
Abstract: Today, there are different points of view on the strategic planning of the production activity at enterprises and approaches to its implementation. In conditions of high uncertainty and rapid changes in the surrounding environment developing a strategy, relying only on probabilistic forecast is too risky. In an unstable environment, there are many possible options of future, which raises the need to design scenarios for key areas of development. In addition, it should be noted that many Russian enterprises during strategic planning of production activities "thinking scenario" has not taken root. In part, it happened due to of complication of development process and identification of scenario’s reliability. Preparation of the scenarios required significant time, while in most cases the whole system of industrial relations in the domestic enterprises built with reliance on short-term goals. In the above scientific paper, the authors reveal some theoretical features of the strategic planning of production activities, the approaches formed in Russia according to strategic planning, as well as the importance of developing the scenarios in the planning of activities, which directed to achieve the strategic goals of the organization. The author notes that the main meaning of development scenarios for strategic planning of industrial activity is to construct different and equally plausible options for the production development in the future. It is emphasized that the development of scenarios should be one of basic conditions for the strategic planning of industrial activity, which is capable of quickly and effectively prepare the production process and the whole enterprise for the new economic conditions.

Abstract:
Response of 'Park' Kentucky bluegrass to inoculation with Klebsiella pneumoniae strain W-6 was tested under field conditions. Field inoculation did not increase nitrogenase activity measured in situ, but did increase the nitrogenase activity as measured using an excised root assay which included a 10-h incubation before the addition of acetylene. Fifteen lines composing 'Park' were grown in fritted-clay medium, inoculated with soil, and compared for nitrogenase activities using the excised roots assay. Significant differences were observed between two lines. Six lines were selected from the 15 lines, grown hydroponically, inoculated with soil, and assayed for nitrogenase activity using intact 105-day-old plants. Nitrogenase activities were immediately detectable and increased curvilinearly. Differences in nitrogenase activities among the six lines were detected within 1 h and significant differences were evident in 4 h. The six selected lines were also tested for levels of anthrone-reactive sugars in roots and root exudates of hydroponically grown plants. Significant differences were detected in levels of sugars in roots but not in root exudates. Possible correlations were sought among and within the three different experiments involving the six selected lines. With hydroponically grown plants, nitrogenase activities during the first 4 h were highly correlated with those after 24 h incubation. Correlations were found between nitrogenase activities in excised roots and soluble sugar concentrations in root tissue and root exudates.

Abstract:
‘Music is both a creative and a performing art’ (Hallam, 2006, p. 70). Many musicians and music educators maintain that composing and performing, although related, are essentially different aspects of musical activity. In the professional musical sphere, composition and performance are almost invariably separated; academic studies have treated them discretely; GCSE and ‘A’ level specifications assess them distinctly, and many music teachers assess them in the classroom as if they were separate disciplines. It is common practice for students in the lower secondary school in England to work in a more integrated way, however (Philpott, 2001; Major, 2008), composing, performing to the class, and appraising each others’ work. Recently produced assessment guidelines for secondary school music teachers in England (NAME, 2011) encourage this more integrated view, accepting the assumption made by Swanwick and Franca (1999, p. 12) that ‘musical understanding is a broad conceptual dimension’ by considering composing and performing as inter-linked ways of demonstrating and communicating musicality. This study sets out to investigate the links between composing and performing in the secondary school classroom, through peer-rating, teacher rating and students’ self-report attitudinal questionnaires, analysing these using a multi-trait, multi-method technique.Evidence for convergent validity was found between performing and composing in the classroom, suggesting that they are closely linked and may indeed be related parts of the same trait. This may have implications for the ways in which composing and performing are taught and assessed. A larger-scale study could be undertaken to investigate this further.

Abstract:
A questionnaire regarding music classroom activity preferences was administered to 2,251 kindergarten through fifth-grade students. Students stated whether they liked to participate in 13 traditional music-classroom activities and eight music-program-related activities, and they identified their favorite activity among six. Students preferred playing instruments above all other activities within and across grade levels, and 50% reported instrument playing as their favorite activity. Singing and listening were about equally liked within and across grades. Students preferred creative movement over dance within and across grades; first graders responded less positively to dance than to any other activity. Positive attitude toward composing declined with advancing grade level. Eighty-one percent liked to perform in music programs, and more than half liked to perform in small ensembles. Students responded very positively to attending concerts and having performers come to the classroom, but were less positive about participating in music contests.

Abstract:
Over the last decade digital technologies have brought significant changes to classroom music, promising support for the realisation of a musical education for all students. National curricula and exam specifications continue to embed technology more deeply. While these changes increasingly impact on music classrooms, there is a growing awareness that the presence of digital technologies may not always promote meaningful compositional development, particularly at GCSE level. A ‘musical’ curriculum seeks to promote meaningful compositional development by building upon a student’s previous musical experience and by providing practical, integrated and collaborative composing experiences. Existing empirical research demonstrates that a wide range of digital technologies are used in secondary classrooms to support students’ compositional processes. When used successfully, such technologies give rise to computer- mediated environments which promote musical composing experiences. At the same time, current models of compositional development do not adequately account for the ways in which such contextual factors mediate students’ compositional development. In response to this, the current research employs a multiple case study approach to explore the ways in which two secondary music students’ compositional development proceeds when working with digital technologies. Drawing from both symbolic interactionism and activity theory as complementary theoretical lenses, students’ own views of their developing composing process are positioned in a critical and reflexive dialogue with the researcher’s own constant analysis. Tools for data collection include a novel synchronous multiple video capture technique (SMV) developed to meet the demands of the project. The methodology draws on ethnographic techniques and the framework for analysis is based on an adapted constant comparative procedure. Set in the context of a UK secondary school the thesis explores several themes which emerge from the stories of Sam and Emily, our two student cases, and which add to current understanding of compositional development with computer-mediated environments. A theoretical model is proposed which presents the process of compositional development in terms of four connections that emerge from Sam’s and Emily’s ways of working. They are: connecting in institutional space, connecting in personalised space, connecting in emancipated space and connecting in shared space. Four developmental points are offered within these spaces: a point of enabling, a point of discovery, a point of transformation and a point of connection. Each point of development is linked to a type of development which, drawing on the literature, have been given the following titles: scaffolded development, serendipitous development, computer-mediated development and creative development. Finally, the study suggests several implications for teachers and avenues for further research relating to the nature of personalised spaces, providing varied contextual opportunities, understanding computer- mediated composing and promoting student ownership.

Abstract:
Women’s appearances are often judged by stringent, societal expectations, notably that of the thin-ideal. Pregnancy presents a definitive, yet naturally-occurring deviation from this norm. Research findings on how pregnant women cope with bodily changes however, are equivocal. Some feel protected from appearance-related concerns, whilst others experience increased body dissatisfaction. The aim of the present research was to build a composite understanding of factors that have an influence on body image attitudes and coping strategies in nulliparous women. Underpinned by a new realist and pragmatic approach, the research comprised of qualitative and quantitative components. The first aim was to explore messages about the pregnant body, and the role of exercise in UK magazines and online news sites. A qualitative, thematic examination of articles revealed a stark “invisibility” of the pregnant body in fashion magazines and a disparity in exercise messages and bodily portrayals among news and magazine publications. Overwhelmingly, beauty equated with the thin-ideal, not the pregnant body in news sites and fashion magazines. Study 1’s findings and existing pregnancy research guided Study 2; an exploration of women’s thoughts about their pregnant bodies, the role of exercise, and media-related, bodily descriptions. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with nine pregnant women. Thematic analysis revealed that although women accepted their pregnant bodies, they experienced unwelcomed appearance-related comments, comparisons, and physical contact by others. Their pregnant bodies were perceived as being persistently scrutinised. Finally, a quantitative exploration of appearance-related experiences was conducted, using an online questionnaire administered to 181 pregnant women. Guided by Cash’s (2011a) theoretical model, a multitude of complex factors were examined using path analysis. The model revealed that body appreciation / acceptance, body shame and surveillance, fitness / health attitudes, and appearance evaluation / investment were influenced by historical (e.g., self-esteem, public self-consciousness) and proximal factors (e.g., social comparison). Exercise participation, clothing for concealment, and avoidance / fixing behaviours were associated with shame and surveillance, appearance comparisons, and physical discomforts in pregnancy. The present research indicates that women experience complex appearance- and fitness-related issues in pregnancy. The research concludes by highlighting the importance of nurturing self-esteem in pregnancy to increase body confidence and protect against negative coping strategies through the transition towards motherhood.

Abstract:
Ce travail de thèse a pour objectif l'étude des performances bactéricides et l'identification des mécanismes d'abattement bactérien d'un nouveau matériau Al2O3-TiO2-Ag pour la désinfection des eaux de spa. L'activité bactéricide du matériau fondée sur les propriétés antibactérienne de l'argent a été démontrée en réacteur statique puis en dynamique sur la base d'un mélange bactérien E. coli et S. epidermidis non pathogène (Gram négatif et Gram positif). Cette désinfection est favorisée à 37°C, en conditions aérobies et sans sel (CaCO3 ou CaCl2), correspondant aux conditions de mise en œuvre du spa. Elle repose sur une action couplée de la désorption d'argent et de la surface du matériau, induisant la génération de Réactive Oxygen Species (ROS) en conditions aérobies. Cette action de surface devient majoritaire en réacteur continu avec une désorption qui représente moins de 1% de l'argent total déposé. Une modification du traitement de surface du matériau améliore l'activité bactéricide et diminue la désorption d'argent (seulement 0,4 mg.L-1 en solution). L'analyse des mécanismes bactéricides a mis en évidence une action immédiate du matériau avec lyse mais aussi condensation de l'ADN, endommagement de la chaîne respiratoire et attaque oxydative des ROS représentant près de 60 % de l'abattement des bactéries
This work aims to study the bactericidal performances of an innovative Al2O3-TiO2-Ag material for spa water disinfection and to identify the involved bactericidal mechanisms. The bactericidal activity based on silver disinfectant properties was highlighted in static and dynamic conditions with a non pathogenic bacterial mixture of E. coli and S. epidermidis (negative and positive Grams respectively). This disinfection was favored at 37°C, in aerobic conditions and without salt (CaCO3 or CaCl2). It was involved by a coupled action of desorbed and supported silver material, inducing a ROS (Reactive Oxygen Species) generation in aerobic conditions. In a dynamic reactor, a surface action mainly happened with a desorption lower than 1% of the total deposited silver. An improvement of the material surface treatment provided an better bactericidal activity coupled with a decreased desorption (only 0.4 mg.L-1 in solution). The investigation of the bactericidal mechanisms evidenced immediate material action with lysis but also DNA condensation, collapse of the respiratory chain and oxidative attack of ROS representing nearly 60% of the bacterial removal

The purpose of this work is to demonstrate that is possible to characterize the US manufacturing activity utilizing public data. Analysis of the state of the art in manufacturing metrics showed that our approach is unique since exploits a niche that is not covered by any existent report or indicator. A Composite Index of Leading Indicators (MCI) was created for the domestic manufacturing activity, exclusively based in official data from the US Census Bureau and the US Bureau of Labor Statistics. The MCI was benchmarked against the US Manufacturing Gross Domestic Product (GDP). As a result, evidence was found that MCI anticipates in 5 - 9 months to the GDP economic fluctuations, as measured through cross-correlation analysis. Additionally, the developed framework was satisfactorily applied to Canada as a second source of validation. In practice, other feature of MCI that stands out respect the existent metrics is that provides insight at the level of subsectors according to the North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS). The MCI behaves properly in 18 of the 20 subsectors analyzed, being of especial interest the subsectors like Primary Metals and Petroleum and Coal Products, which have a larger lead and correlation. Conclusions of our work show that the manufacturing sector can be effectively described using the MCI, providing managers and decision makers with a novel perspective of the upcoming manufacturing scenario.

Abstract:
Introduction: Orthodontic treatment may cause an increased accumulation of cariogenic bacteria. An orthodontic resin with antibacterial properties may inhibit bacterial growth around the brackets. The aims of this in-vitro study were to compare the antibacterial and mechanical properties of the newly introduced orthodontic resin containing selenium with a standard resin and a resin modified glass ionomer (RMGI). Methods: Three orthodontic materials were tested (SeLECTDefense; TransbondXT, Fuji Ortho-LC). The antibacterial properties of these materials were evaluated by studying the bacterial growth in liquid media (BG) and agar diffusion (AD) tests. In the BG testing, 100 adhesive discs (3mmx2mm) were created of each material. Five discs were then placed into each vial containing 0.5ml of brain-heart-infusion broth and 2.5µl of streptococcus mutans (MS)(n=20). Following incubation (37°C, 24hours), the vials were placed in a Spectrophotomoter (Genesys 20) at 600 nm to determine bacterial growth by measuring the optical density (OD). In the AG testing, agar plates were inoculated with 100µl of MS in brain heart infusion agar. Fifteen adhesive discs (6mmx2mm) of each material were prepared and placed into groups of five on 3 agar plates. Following incubation (37°C, 48 hours), the agar plates were visually inspected for zones of bacterial inhibition. The mechanical properties were evaluated using shear bond strength testing (SBS) and an adhesive remnant index scoring (ARI). Sixty human premolars were randomly assorted into groups of 20 for each material (n=20). The brackets were bonded following the manufacturers' instructions. Debonding was performed using a universal testing device (Instron)(crossheadspeed 5mm/min). The mode of failure was evaluated using a stereomicroscope (OlympusSZX7) and scored 0-to-3 for remaining adhesive on enamel. Results were statistically analyzed using Welsch's ANOVA, One way ANOVA, Tukey's Kramer and Tukey's HSD tests. Results: In BG, the resin containing selenium (SD) promoted more bacterial growth (OD=0.427) compared to the standard resin (XT) (OD= 0.222) and RMGI (OD=0.275). In AD, no zones of inhibition were observed which means that no antibacterial agent was released from any of the orthodontic adhesives. In SBS, SD (11.63±2.07MPa) showed statistically lower bond strength than XT (15.16±4.68MPa) but both resins were in the clinically acceptable range. RMGI (6.03±3.95MPa) showed a statistically lower bond strength at a clinically unacceptable degree. Debonding was mostly at the bracket-adhesive interface for SD (ARI=2&3) meaning that most of the adhesive remained on the enamel. In XT and RMGI groups, debonding occurred mostly at the adhesive-enamel interfaces (ARI=0&1). Conclusion: Within the limitations of this in vitro study, the resin containing selenium did not show any favorable antibacterial properties in comparison to the other materials. None of the materials, including fluoride-releasing RMGI, caused bacterial inhibition in their surroundings. The resin containing selenium showed clinically acceptable but statistically lower bond strength as compared to standard resin but its mode of failure was more favorable because most of the adhesive remained on enamel.

Abstract:
This chapter uses a scene in Plautus’ Amphitruo to reconstruct contemporary Roman oratorical practice in the context of the diplomacy of intervention, offering a close reading of a monologue by the slave Sosia (Amph. 186–218). In this extract Sosia describes the composition of a ‘victory speech’ for his master’s wife and, within the speech, recounts the diplomatic activity that preceded the war. Traces of the fetiales formula in the latter can be contextualized in terms of a rhetoric of intimidation, used to establish Roman supremacy even before the outbreak of war. The monologue itself, in depicting Sosia’s doubts and concerns while composing his speech, sheds light on the disposition of speakers in tense situations.

Abstract:
AbstractCo-composting is a technique that allows the aerobic degradation of organic waste mixtures, primarily aiming at obtaining compost that can be used as fertiliser or soil amendment. As compared to the typical composting activity, the main difference is not merely the use of more than one feedstock to start and sustain the biodegradation process, but also the possibility of combining various kinds of waste to obtain ‘tailored’ products with designed properties, or to reclaim and valorise natural resources, such as degraded soils or polluted soils and sediments. Set up of appropriate co-composting protocols can be a way to optimise the management of waste produced by different sectors of agriculture and industry and also from human settlements. Different formulations can not only optimise the biodegradation process through the adjustment of nutrient ratios, but also lead to the formation of products with innovative properties. Moreover, co-composting can be a technique of choice for the reclamation of soils degraded by intensive agriculture or contaminated soils and sediments. In fact, an appropriate mix of organic waste and soils can restore the soil structure and induce fertility in nutrient-depleted soils, and also remediate polluted soils and sediments through degradation of organic pollutants and stabilisation of heavy metals. While the selection of different mixes of organic waste may lead to the design of composts with specific properties and the potential valorisation of selected waste materials, there are still several factors that hamper the development of co-composting platforms, mainly insufficient knowledge of some chemical and microbiological processes, but also some legislative aspects. This chapter illustrates the progress achieved in co-composting technology worldwide, some key legislative aspects related to the co-composting process, the main scientific and technical aspects that deserve research attention to further develop co-composting technology, and successful applications of co-composting for the reclamation of soils and sediments, allowing their use for cultivation or as growing media in plant nurseries. A specific case study of the production of fertile plant-growing media from sediment co-composting with green waste is also illustrated.

Abstract:
Music creation involves not only composing the different parts (e.g., melody, chords) of a musical work but also arranging/selecting the instruments to play the different parts. While the former has received increasing attention, the latter has not been much investigated. This paper presents, to the best of our knowledge, the first deep learning models for rearranging music of arbitrary genres. Specifically, we build encoders and decoders that take a piece of polyphonic musical audio as input, and predict as output its musical score. We investigate disentanglement techniques such as adversarial training to separate latent factors that are related to the musical content (pitch) of different parts of the piece, and that are related to the instrumentation (timbre) of the parts per short-time segment. By disentangling pitch and timbre, our models have an idea of how each piece was composed and arranged. Moreover, the models can realize “composition style transfer” by rearranging a musical piece without much affecting its pitch content. We validate the effectiveness of the models by experiments on instrument activity detection and composition style transfer. To facilitate follow-up research, we open source our code at https://github.com/biboamy/instrument-disentangle.

Abstract:
Aim/Purpose: In this research the authors present the designs of three different knowledge object meta-data wrapper models as a supportive technology to assist the knowledge intensive operations of a network of knowledge, such as a living lab. Background: Within any knowledge driven network environment there is a need to increase the corporate knowledge capacity of the network. The role of experts and knowledge brokers are emphasized, and the exchange of knowledge based on prior experiences informing corporate memories of the members, is the departure point of this research. Methodology: The primary research method applied is that of the design science research methodology supported by experience and application research and the literature. Contribution: Three different metadata models are presented that will when implemented support the informing process within the network of knowledge. The models are grounded on the utilization of metadata elements composing of various key descriptors as found in activity theory and normal means of heuristic enquiry which entail common questions. The elements are annotated and fur-ther enriched using standard JSON-LD IRI pairs. The presented models expand on the extant knowledge of the use of metadata annotations and present a novel way in encapsulating the corporate memories of knowledge workers in the form of knowledge object wrappers. Findings: The results of the evaluation process of the design science research methodolo-gy applied, showed that there is a consensus that the use of knowledge object wrappers as additional metadata, containers could enhance the knowledge ca-pacity and efficiency of a LL and in particular the knowledge brokers.
